♥ Shelby Pennington Events Team

If you haven't realized yet I really love weddings....LOVE them! There is not a single stage of the wedding planning and coordination process that I don't whole heartedly enjoy. Growing up I was always eager to listen to advice from others in hopes that I would learn something. I remember one year on the last day of school one of our elementary teachers told us that if he could give us one piece of advice it would be not to sweat the small stuff, because one day you would look back and it would all be small stuff. But that's just it, the small stuff piles together and voila something wonderful happens. Perhaps this is why I am so drawn to this career, I truly believe a wonderful event involves paying attention to the minor details.

When my husband and I first got engaged we were so overwhelmed with the love and support from our family and friends but everyone kept asking the same thing: "when are you getting married?" We got asked this question so many times and when we finally had an answer the next question we had to tackle was forming our bridal party.

But that is just it----- how do you go about asking someone to be your bridesmaid/groomsmen? I wanted it to be something special so they each knew how much they meant to me and how much I loved them. I decided to create something unique and beautiful to ask each of them to stand beside me. Thankfully they all said yes, aren't they beautiful!!!

I struggled to find some of the items that I wanted- so to make things easier for you I compiled a collection of my favourite and unique items!
